Q&A
Question:
Does applying for Residence Permit in Portugal require substantial investments?
Silvercloud:
Golden Residence Permit (residency-by-investment programme), could be obtained with a commonly used minimum real estate investment of € 500,000. However, depending on a strategy chosen, a Residence Permit (general type) may be granted on several different grounds, including incorporation of a company, education, employment and several other cost-effective options.
Question:
Which type of residence permit should I apply for?
Silvercloud:
Depending on a personal strategy and intention, several possible solutions may be developed. Some clients may benefit from Golden Residence Permit due to advantageous minimal stay requirements — 7 days during the first year and 14 days during each subsequent 2-year period. Other clients intending to establish an actual permanent residence in Portugal, may choose more efficient and cost-effective ways of applying for Residence Permit.
Question:
What about my family?
Silvercloud:
Your immediate family members (spouse, children, retired parents) are entitled to apply for a Residency Permit with equal rights.
Question:
How many times do I have to come to Portugal for the Residency Card to be issued?
Silvercloud:
With the power of attorney to our legal expert, you will be required to come to Portugal for a meeting with the Immigration Authorities only once to provide your biometrics.
Question:
Will Portuguese Residency allow me to become a European citizen?
Silvercloud:
Yes. After having held Portuguese residency for 5 years and passing a basic Portuguese language test, you will be entitled to apply for Portuguese passport and thus becoming a European Union citizen.
